ROY'S DOCTOR (AUS), FEELS LIKE HEAVEN, BEE BEE BONNET and SILVER TALE were slow into stride. SILVER TALE was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Assistant Trainer Steyn was questioned regarding the improved performance of SILVER TALE the winner as compared to her previous performances. He explained to the Board that this filly is better suited to the longer distance of today's race and he has undertaken to race her over similar distances in future. He was further of the view that the field today was of a weak calibre. Mr Steyn's explanation was noted. MARIAH ANN jumped outwards at the start carrying SILVER TALE, ROY'S DOCTOR (AUS) and BEE BEE BONNET outwards. ICEOLITE became cramped and was eased shortly after the start. MARIAH ANN and TRAVILLA over-raced in the early stages. NORIKI was pulling hard in the early stages, difficult to restrain. FEELS LIKE HEAVEN shifted in slightly approaching the 150 metre mark carrying MARIAH ANN inwards and resulting in MARIAH ANN becoming inconvenienced. TRAVILLA raced fitted with steels. BERTHE was sold with engagement and the Ownership should read: 3 A Racing Syndicate (Nom : Mr W A W Bowman) and Mr A D & Mrs J E Gordon; and the Colours are: Black, shocking pink hoop and armbands, black cap, shocking pink peak. The course farrier on duty did not report there to be anything amiss with the shoes fitted to the horses that raced at today's race meeting. The passports of all the runners that raced at today's race meeting were checked, identities, AHS and Equine Influenza vaccinations confirmed, as per normal procedure with the exception of ESCOVITCH who was identified by means of a microchip number.
